had watched the years drift by perfecting a
character that won the love of all with whom
tribute to his memory realize how vain are
words of sympathy to breaking hearts. As

College of st. Louis. last March. Soon after
he returned to his old home where he had by
thorough Christian example and pious in.

Tor future usefulness. He ever maintained
toward those with whom he was associated h
kindly spirit, respectful manner. sympa-

was faithful and true, to sisters and brothers
tender and affectionate. To his mother he
was always loving and dutiful son. For
